Abstract (en)
There is provided a mouthpiece for engaging with a shell to form an electrically heated smoking system, the shell having an electric power supply and electric circuitry. The mouthpiece comprises a liquid storage portion with liquid therein, a capillary wick having a first end and a second end, at least one heating element for heating the second end of the capillary wick and being at least partially in contact with the second end of the capillary wick, wherein the liquid at the second end of the capillary wick is vaporised by the heating element to form a supersaturated vapour, when the heating element is activated, an air outlet, and an aerosol forming chamber. In the aerosol forming chamber the vapour condenses to form an aerosol to be carried towards the air outlet. The capillary wick extends between the liquid and the heating element. When the shell and mouthpiece are engaged, the at least one heating element is in electrical connection with the power supply via the circuitry, the circuitry is arranged to provide an electric current pulse to the at least one heating element when a user initiates a puff, and a flow route for air is defined from at least one air inlet to the air outlet via the aerosol forming chamber, the flow route channelling the air flow around the heating element and the second end of the capillary wick.
